Mental Health in a Space Colony

The human factor for manned space exploration brings with it the need to address mental health. Imagine your self in a space colony, not the leisure side, but the gritty side of daily survival. It is not a clean job, in fact space life is a swing between extremes. An easy life on one side and life or death situations on the other. This is hard to deal with mentally. But it will lead to better study of mental health, so we should not back down because of this nor have the stigma of mental health lead this not to be addressed.
